The Victorian Branch has been instrumental in facilitating innovative
CPD programs for Rural Fellows. Through funding from the Support Scheme
for Rural Specialists, a joint initiative of the Commonwealth of Health
and Ageing and the Committee of Presidents of Medical Colleges, the RANZCR
provides four state of the art programs that give rural and regional specialists
the same opportunities as their city colleagues to meet, discuss cases
and at the same time add to their CPD points. These programs are coordinated
by the Victorian Branch on behalf of the College and the Faculty of Radiation
Oncology:
- Case reviews from the Alfred Hospital Radiology Team
- RANZCR Victorian Branch Monthly Scientific Meetings
- Interventional Radiology
- Videoconference Series “Current Issues in Oncology for Medical
Specialists”

details of these programs and how to get involved.
